Marlins' Morel Out 4-6 Weeks with Oblique Strain, De Los Santos Recalled

The Miami Marlins placed Christopher Morel on the 10-day injured list with a four-to-six-week oblique strain, prompting the recall of Deyvison De Los Santos. Morel, 26, was slated to be the starting first baseman, so De Los Santos will get an early big-league opportunity as lines shift and infield time or DH roles are adjusted with Norby, Pauley, and Sanoja potentially seeing added action.

Marlins Start Season Shorthanded as Stowers and Ruiz Hit IL

The Miami Marlins announced that outfielder Kyle Stowers will begin the season on the injured list with a grade 1 hamstring strain and outfielder Esteury Ruiz also heads to the IL with an oblique strain, likely sidelining him into May. Stowers could return as early as mid-April, while Ruiz’s timeline is less certain, prompting a reshuffled Opening Day outfield that includes Jakob Marsee, Owen Caissie, and Griffin Conine as the team navigates injuries to its depth.

Marlins’ Stowers and Ruiz Suffer Injuries, Imaging Pending

Kyle Stowers left Friday's Grapefruit League game with right hamstring tightness and Esteury Ruiz exited with a left oblique strain; imaging results have not yet been released. Stowers has a history of a minor hamstring issue and has mostly been limited to live batting practice, while Ruiz’s oblique could sideline him for weeks if not minor. If Stowers opens the season on the 10-day injured list, internal options like Javier Sanoja, Heriberto Hernandez, Christopher Morel, or Connor Norby could fill in in left field, and Miami may seek further outfield depth via trades or free agents depending on camp outcomes. Manager Clayton McCullough provided no new updates on imaging.

Marlins Trade Weathers to Yankees for Four Prospects

Miami sent left-hander Ryan Weathers to the Yankees for four prospects—Dillon Lewis, Brendan Jones, Dylan Jasso and Juan Matheus—continuing a rotation-rebuild after previously dealing Edward Cabrera; Weathers, 26, has injury risk but three years of MLB control and arbitration eligibility, with a light tax hit for New York. With Cole and Rodón sidelined early, the Yankees expect Weathers to slot into a back-end/third-starter role behind Fried and Schlittler, while Miami adds youth in the four prospects as it rebuilds.

Marlins Sign Pete Fairbanks to One-Year Deal

The Miami Marlins are signing reliever Pete Fairbanks to a one-year, $13 million contract, making him likely their closer for the upcoming season. Fairbanks, who previously played for the Rays, had a strong 2025 season with a 2.83 ERA and is known for his high-velocity fastball and effective strikeout ability. The deal includes incentives and a trade bonus, and it helps bolster the Marlins' bullpen, which has been in need of improvement. This move is part of the Marlins' broader offseason spending plans.

Marlins Eyeing Devin Williams and Outfield Boost in Free Agency

The Miami Marlins are interested in acquiring Devin Williams, a talented reliever with a strong track record, as they aim to improve their bullpen and contend more seriously in the upcoming season. Williams, who struggled with the Yankees after a successful stint with the Brewers, could be a bargain due to his recent performance, and Miami's need for a closer makes him an attractive option. However, competition from other teams and Williams's openness to staying with the Yankees could influence the outcome.
